Kicking My Ass

I didn't have much trouble with SOTN, Aria of Sorrow, or Harmony of Dissonance, but Circle of the Moon is seriously kicking my ass.

It's definitely a tough game from what I can remember and significantly harder than AoS, which was the game I played before CotM. Dawn of Sorrow is my personal favorite...not too hard, not too easy and it graphics were great!

Yep, CotM kicked my also kicked my ass.

Hmm, I recall it being a bit tough in the beginning but once you level up a few levels and find some useful cards it gets much easier.

Awesome game, btw.

Somehow as a kid I kicked ass at this game, but now that I'm playing it 9 years later I'm no good at it. It's fuckin' tough.

It's easy, just do the card trick and get whatever power you want.

My favorite Castlevania, I beat this game along time ago so don't remember how long it took me to do so but I do remember it being great.

This and Order of Ecclasia are two of my favorite Casltevania games.
